Outstanding from Brook again and heck of a final over from Livingstone
Then the bowlers took advantage of the conditions
Imagine the series going to a decider

Great platform thrown away

Looks like England are taking a leaf out of Arsenal’s book, trying to waste time so the rain comes before 20 overs are bowled

Didn't work. Same as Arsenal. Poor collapse from England and wasteful bowling when we had the ball

India have gone full on Bazball in their Test against Bangladesh- 285-9 off 34.4 overs. Their first 50 came in 3 overs!

It is modern test cricket. I don't know why they sell tickets for day 4 and especially day 5. Make it pay on the gate as there is rarely a full days play anymoreIndia have gone full on Bazball in their Test against Bangladesh- 285-9 off 34.4 overs. Their first 50 came in 3 overs!

Could be chasing a big first innings total. Interesting to see how Bazball copes with that away from home on this track

Why are they playing a test match is Muscat? Is there sufficient income generated from TV to make it worth while ?

Ah Multan
Still a valid question with the crowds there
Unfortunately a lot of the crowds now don’t go to tests - prefer the t20 and ODI

Brilliant from Root , Duckett and Brook this morning
Well worthy of Root to have the record , fully deserved and the cherry is the first ton in Pakistan
Shame it’s such a poor wicket

Brilliant from Root, tbh with the decline of Test cricket it’s probably a record that will never be beaten.
And wickets like the one they are playing on does nothing for the format.

How can you play on a wicket where we are potentially looking at 1000 first innings runs.

Odds on a win for either side? Surely neither will collapse enough in the second innings
